F                C
I had seven faces
          F                     C
Thought I knew which one to wear
        F                                   C
But I'm sick of spending these lonely nights
         F                 C
Training myself not to care
    F                C
The subway is a xxxxx
F                        C
Pavements they are a mess
  F                              C
I know you've supported me for a long time
F                        C
Somehow I'm not impressed


C              F
But New York cares (got to be some more change in my life)

Subway she is a xxxxx
        F                        C
And the pavements they are a mess
   F                             C
I know you've supported me for a long time
F                        C

Biography

Interpol is an American post-punk band formed in Manhattan, New York, in 1997. They played an important part in the post-punk revival of the 2000s. The band consists of Paul Banks (vocals and guitar), Sam Fogarino (drums), and Daniel Kessler (guitar and backing vocals). The band's sound is generally a mix of staccato bass and rhythmic, harmonized guitar, with a snare heavy mix, drawing comparisons to post-punk bands such as Joy Division and The Chameleons.
